The "Castle" is located at the end of a cul-de-sac in Telegraph Hill and if you get a window seating, the view of the SF bay and East Bay is spectacular. The 3rd floor penthouse has the best views but it was booked for a wedding dinner that evening. Valet parking is $10. This is my 3rd time dining at Julius Castle & the restaurant has an extensive wine list, many in the 3 digit price category. The Caesar salad was delicious, for $11. The bread was crusty, crunchy and delicious. The seared scallops and foie gras were very good. My party had entrees of rack of lamb and duck & liked their meals. My ahi tuna was too bland. Service was attentive. The restaurant reminds you of an old library with dark wood panels. Dinner for 4 with a bottle of wine came to $300.
Pros: service, view, good food
Cons: parking, expensive
